    Background: Papilledema is swelling of the optic nerve secondary to increased intracranial pressure. Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a technique that allows for fast and non-invasive imaging of the peripapillary microvasculature. Here, we evaluate a novel way of analyzing OCTA images of eyes with papilledema through the use of fractals to estimate vascular complexity through fractal dimension. Methods: A retrospective clinical chart review of papilledema patients imaged with OCTA was performed. En face OCT angiograms identifying peripapillary vessels were obtained using a spectral-domain OCT system. Default automated peripapillary scans of 4.5 mm × 4.5 mm diameter were processed with ImageJ. Fractal analysis was performed with Fractalyse software. Results: Fifty-six eyes with papilledema and 40 .. View More»
